      It was the FAA ATC Low Altitude Alert that may have saved their butt from descending any further.

    2 things wrong here with this report IMO: it didn’t “drop”, it flew low…. 2nd, that “loop” was not a spiral, it was a hold to get resequenced for another attempt to land. These words being thrown around like that is little misleading I think.

    Big deal. These Southwest pilots were 125 feet higher than the Southwest pilots that were heading rapidly down before regaining control only 400 feet above the ocean in April. But somehow, Southwest managed to hide the April event as good loyal company people were expected to do.

      @@user-zn5qg4se6q Just speculating since the flight tracker shows the plane was descending and leveled off roughly at 500 feet, then dropped to around 400 feet, likely triggering a low altitude warning to ATC. Pilot error should definitely be considered first. Personally I find it odd that these incidents are happening frequently with Southwest and it probably might be time to investigate the management/operations at Southwest.
